Was the V6 race series called the 'Clio v6 trophy challenge' (as in a big shiny trophy) i think thats where the model maker is getting the 'trophy' from ?
Lankan,
Is the price of the insured vehicle reflected in the price of the policy,i mean if you value a trophy at say 6K (top money at current market prices) do you pay a lot for that policy ?
